Berlin's multiple layers and its eclectic urban character of the past 100 years have resulted in a city rich with different architectural voices and urban ideals. The constant making and unmaking of Berlin's urban form has become part of the its unique DNA. Yet, after its reunification in 1989, a new voice emerged which began to strongly dominate the city's other "voices". Reacting to the traumas of the previous century, this voice, now termed "The Critical Reconstruction," attempts to glaze over the city's rich and conflicted personalities of the past. It resurrects a convenient and conservative interpretation of the 19th Century city and its bourgeois ideal of urbanity to "beautify" and "unify" the urban environment. New projects that appear old, zoning laws that dictate all new inner-city developments to mimic Berlins fictive and idealized past, and many other planning and design operations, most symbolically the recent reconstruction of the Stadtschloss (City Castle), are all representative of this trend. This "Critical Reconstruction" approach continues to lead the city into an architectural-urban monoculture, creating a homogenous image of the city, overpowering its other voices. Where there was once a plurality, now stands a single voice above the rest. This project brings to the forefront a polyphonic mechanism by which Berlin's diminishing other voices can recover and regain a prominent role in shaping its urban character. By redeveloping the principles of each voice into spatial operations, speculative interventions into the city fabric redraw the image of the city through a manipulation of the lens through which the city is read by its users.

Somali people have lived continuously in Glasgow since the early 2000s. Having faced the challenging circumstances of Dispersal, subsequent social inequalities, and a fast changing political climate, the population is now part of Scotland's multicultural society. However, despite this success, many Somali people do not feel that the population 'has voice' in Glasgow. As seventeen-year-old Duniya comments, 'it's like we're hidden down, under the table, we are seen, but nobody knows what we're about'. Based on two years' of ethnographic fieldwork with Somali groups and individuals in Glasgow, this thesis considers the extent to which Somali people (do not) 'have voice' in Glasgow. It finds that Somali people's communicative experiences are strongly grounded in practices and infrastructures of community, and often a combined result of 'internal' and 'external' approaches to the concept. First, considering the contribution of Somali cultures of 'voice' to Somali people's experiences in the city, I argue that, due to the particular way in which a Somali community has developed in Glasgow, people's vocal experiences have been characterised by a complex combination of cohesion and fragmentation. Second, considering the impact of 'external' approaches to 'voice' in Scotland upon Somali experiences, I identify three areas - 'community development' infrastructure, the news-media and constructions of public spaces - which place limitations on Somali people's belonging, citizenship and 'voice' in Scotland. Moreover, I suggest, the impact of these 'external' approaches to 'voice' on 'internal' vocal practices serve only to compound existing communicative inequalities. In the context of the current political climate, in which concern for people's citizenship, belonging and voices is particularly heightened, I echo Somali people's calls for increased dialogue between communities to consider the communicative inequalities that have so far been unaddressed.

This dissertation presents findings from ethnographic research conducted with members of the Sociedad La Unión Martí-Maceo, established by segregated Black Cuban cigar workers in Ybor City in 1904. For decades, Tampa officials have initiated numerous urban revitalization projects aimed at developing a world-class tourist destination and metropolitan center. Often, these efforts have centered on highlighting the ethnic history of Ybor City, from which the participation of Black Cubans and the Martí-Maceo Society have been actively excluded or ignored. The main issues related to contemporary Afro- Cuban identity in Tampa and which will be examined in my dissertation, include the changing nature of the Afro-Cuban community in Tampa in light of increases in migration of Cubans and other Latinos of color to the area; Martí-Maceo members’ struggle to reclaim an Afro-Cuban heritage within Tampa’s larger historic preservation efforts over the past decade; and an examination of the Martí-Maceo Society as a voluntary association that appears to have outlived its usefulness in present-day Tampa despite efforts by elderly members to sustain and expand it.

The Porfirian press in Mexico City (1876-1911) presents an ideal case study for late nineteenth-century Mexican society. This particular epoch in Mexican history represented a time of fundamental change as the country emerged from nearly a half century of chaos and internecine strife into a modern, prosperous and orderly county. For the historian of this important and transforming era, newspapers serve as cultural mirrors, providing images that allow us to see, interpret and understand this society. In this role as cultural actors, the Porfirian press served five defining roles: it was a power resource with the potential to influence, shape and control society; it was the arena where the social, economic and political events of society were publicly acted out; it was the source of the definitions and images that comprised the shared reality; it designated fame and celebrity status to individuals in that society; and it set the parameters of what was normal and abnormal in that society. This study of Porfirian newspapers in Mexico City reveals three fundamental aspects: capital society was highly diverse and contentious, Mexico City residents faced divergent social and political problems and these newspapers mirrored a changing and modernizing nation--they not only chronicled this transformation, they were directly part of it.

Su, Linya. „Song of your voices| Violin performance major students' perceptions of their lives in violin learning from childhood to the music schools in New York City“. Thesis, Teachers College, Columbia University, 2013. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=3588616.
Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
The purpose of this heuristic study was to explore and describe conservatory-trained violin performance major students' perceptions of their lived experience in violin learning from childhood to the music schools in New York City. The seven participants were undergraduate, graduate-level violin major students selected from the three major music schools in New York City. The primary data was collected via face-to-face audiotaped interviews, which became the narrative data.
The first question addressed students' perceptions of one-to-one violin instruction regarding expectations and values. The findings suggested that (1) autonomous thinking, boosted confidence, and transcultural learning were invaluable gains from instruction; (2) a reciprocal relationship existed between the amount of new ideas gained and one's performance outcome in lessons, which connoted students' recognition of self-responsibility in determining the quality of lessons; and (3) an ideal teacher encourages independent thinking, provides honest feedback, and respects students' individuality.
The second question asked students' perceptions toward power relationship and degree of autonomy in decision-making. The findings suggested that (1) interpretive demands seemed to cause a stronger impact to student-autonomy when compared to repertoire and technique-related demands; and (2) students adopted different reactive patterns and conflict management strategies to deal with conflicts and power struggle in the violin studio.
The third question explored students' perceptions toward the helpfulness of other courses to violin performance. The findings suggested that while all students were adept at independent learning, some students reported music theory/history courses were helpful in empowering interpretive/performance autonomy.
The last question investigated students' perceptions toward the interrelationships among self, music, violin performance, and culture. The findings suggested that (1) students' self-concept of ability in violin playing might be correlated with degree of autonomy and self-perceived technical competency; (2) the meaning of violin performance was to attain self-fulfillment in two domains: personal and social; and (3) performance autonomy might be circumscribed by socio-cultural expectation and economic condition.
This study implies that students' continued participation in violin learning might be influenced by economic concern, competitive environment, and self-concept of ability in violin playing. Violin teachers may need to help students maintain a sound professional development.

Advanced automotive technology such as adaptive cruise control and navigation systems are becoming ever more popular. With all of the technology to aid the driver, it is difficult to recognize when the technology used to inform the driver is more of a distraction than a benefit. Specifically, the user interaction associated with navigation systems has not been perfected. In response, the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory at MIT has created City Browser, an in-vehicle naturalistic navigation system that allows the user to search an online database for points on interest and to find directions. To gain feedback on the operation of the system in order to improve it for consumer use, a user study was conducted with over 90 participants. Each subject was also separated into different demographic groups as to quantify the difference of age and gender on system interaction. During the course of the experiment, three different forms of data collection were obtained: self report questionnaires, audio recordings, and physiology measurements such as heart rate, breathing rate, and skin conductance. The results indicate that users' feel the system is enjoyable, useful, and easy to learn. At the same time, users were also displeased with the voice of the system and felt that operating the system required a high level of concentration. The system had a response accuracy of 54.7% and had tendency to recognize the voice of 25-34 and 45-54 year old males better than other demographic group. The physiological measurements taken from the study were deemed to be inconclusive for determining the task difficulty and hence, more testing and analysis is needed. Overall, the City Browser system has proven to be practical in allowing users access to real time directions and points of interest in the greater Boston area. The results from this user study will allow the system to continually develop into a product for consumer use.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
The lack of pupil voice activities within my work context influenced the introduction of a variety of opportunities for pupils to contribute to the leadership of their year group. In order for pupils to effectively lead, it was necessary to develop within them leadership skills. With the intention of promoting pupil voice, more specifically consultation and engagement (the lack identified by pupils), were used as the main tool to develop the content and delivery of the leadership development programme. This study assesses the extent to which consultation and engagement could be used to aid student leadership development in an inner city secondary school. During the research, pupils contributed the content for the leadership development programme and dictated how and when the content should be delivered. Pupils were given opportunities to exhibit the skills they developed when they acted as Head of Year and led their own research. Assessment of student leaders’ leadership skills along with their personal testimonies suggests that they developed leadership skills. The research shows that the experience, in which pupils were also given a plethora of engagement and consultation opportunities, helped pupils to overcome individual and collective concerns. The research proposes that consultation and engagement can be used to develop leadership within pupils. This can be done through pupil-influenced content, pupil-influenced tools and pupil-influenced-research. This research has proposed a model to develop leadership within pupils and in so doing makes an original contribution to existing pedagogy and knowledge.

November of 2014 saw the approval and commission of Tshwane's 2055 vision for the city (Tshwane municipality, 2013: 6). It seeks the restructuring and rejuvenation of the inner city in an attempt to remedy a state of stasis resulting from urban decentralization and fragmentation. Although Tshwane's proposal has potential, its formal exclusive nature and prioritization of the city centre has initiated a process of decay in the informal zones of the urban periphery. This process of decay is particularly evident within the city block of Brown Street. Once a place where many a union march started, Brown Street now exists as a shadow of its former self (Valeska, 2013). A lack of supporting infrastructure and appropriate spatial conditions have facilitated a sharp increase in crime. The consequent privation of safety has, in turn, prompted vacancies of onsite industries. (Valeska, 2013). The loss of formal economic infrastructure (energy) alongside the simultaneous degradation of adjoining infrastructure has inevitably led to the decay of this city block.
This dissertation focuses on the possibility of rehabilitating and regenerating the decaying "in-between" (Woods, 1997: 13) spaces of the city block within its urban periphery. A theoretical approach to transformation is proposed, which, instead of opting for demolition, seeks to expand on existing systems. Therefore, by harnessing site potential, the project suggests that the neglected infrastructure become part of a regenerative machine; a system of components that will stimulate the re-investment and development of the city block. The main intention of the [infra]structure is to establish a coordinated relationship between the formal and informal of the city, the vision and the void. The goal is to create an organized centrality, where fragmented realities are brought together harmoniously using the neglected infrastructures as mediator.Mini Dissertation (MArch(Prof))--University of Pretoria, 2016.

A tese é o resultado de uma pesquisa sobre produção de sentido na ficção televisiva. Demonstra o papel do formato telenovela como ponto de referência desencadeador de valores, emoções e sentimentos vividos no cotidiano da cidade de São Paulo nos anos 2006 e 2007, retratados e revelados na fala de seus habitantes enquanto telespectadores como vozes urbanas. O corpus é constituído de um conjunto de falas de respondentes obtido a partir de pesquisa empírica de natureza exploratória com coleta de dados por meio da técnica da entrevista pelo método de survey, utilizando questionário, com perguntas abertas e fechadas, aplicado por entrevista pessoal face-to-face. O conjunto de falas está introduzido pela história da telenovela e da metrópole paulistana para contextualizar a interpretação do objeto e comprovar a proposta.This thesis is the result of a piece of research on the production of meaning in fiction television. It shows the role that the telenovela format plays as a trigger of values, emotions and feelings experienced in the daily routine of a city like São Paulo in 2006 and 2007, portrayed and revealed by the urban voices of city dwellers, who speak as television viewers. The body of data is made up of a set of respondents lines obtained from empirical exploratory research in which the survey interview method was used to collect data, and a questionnaire with open- and closed-end questions applied in face-to-face interviews. The set of lines is preceded by a background on telenovelas and the city of São Paulo to bring interpretation of the object into perspective and corroborate the proposal.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
With social media’s increasing importance in modern society, this thesis investigates its role in the digital economy and how it shapes the everyday lives of Sheffield’s residents. The significance of social media ties, transactional relationships and concepts about how new media functions in the public sphere are interwoven throughout the literature review. Digital interactivity is conceived as a process, which in turn, influences the perception of status, reputation and recognition. Qualitative interviews were conducted with participants from each of the following three cohorts: computer learners, knowledge workers and global elites. An interactivity spectrum was developed after participant interviews emphasised how social media usage related to employment prospects. This spectrum evaluates the cohort’s online interactivities based on the following categories: technology and data linkages; networking and engagement; representation and identity; information awareness and sociability. This conceptual framework draws on usage patterns and investigates the social ties forged through digital connections. Interactivity serves to amplify voice and visibility; thus, online presence becomes an active form of social capital incorporating both visibility and voice. These cases suggest how digital interactivity and social capital accumulation may be theorized using voice, visibility and presence on the social media sites of Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn. The three groups (learners, knowledge workers and elites) strive separately to achieve both local and national forms of recognition within the public sphere and are clearly marked out by their differences in social media interactivity. This research is important as it delineates a social capital creation pathway that begins with digital engagement and ends with social capital accumulation. The connection between engagement and capital creation also compels a rethink of the digital divide in light of new participatory media practices.

Le travail de recherche vise à relever les défis de la logistique urbaine auxquels sont confrontés les pays en développement, notamment en Asie du Sud-Est. Le chapitre 1 propose une étude des caractéristiques essentielles de ces pays, telles que les défis en matière de revenus, de société et de développement du territoire, et de la manière dont ces défis conduisent aux problèmes de logistique urbaine, notamment via les embouteillages, les routes non sécurisées, les infrastructures de mauvaise qualité, les véhicules chers et peu fiables, le taux de croissance démographique élevé et l'urbanisation. Les difficultés à gérer durablement leurs activités de logistique urbaine et à soutenir leur économie sont ainsi soulignées. Le chapitre 2 donne un aperçu des travaux de recherche sur l'Internet physique (IP) et de la manière dont ils peuvent être envisagés dans le contexte des pays en développement. Les questions de recherche sont formulées sur la base de cette connaissance, à savoir comment les principes de l'IP peuvent être mis en œuvre dans le contexte de la logistique urbaine dans les pays en développement, comment l'application des concepts de l'IP peut être évaluée en termes d'impact sur les performances, et quels sont les avantages que l'on peut attendre de la mise en œuvre de l'IP dans le cas de la logistique urbaine dans les pays en développement. Pour résoudre ces questions, la thèse propose une méthodologie de recherche comprenant quatre phases principales et neuf étapes. Le chapitre 3 élabore une contribution conceptuelle en évaluant l'accessibilité et les niveaux d'intérêt de chaque concept d'IP et conclut que les concepts prioritaires pour résoudre l'énoncé du problème devraient être le partage d'informations et les systèmes normalisés, les activités collaboratives et les interconnexions entre les parties prenantes. Sur cette base, un ensemble de scénarios a été conçu pour mettre en pratique l'IP afin de mieux livrer les marchandises dans le contexte de la logistique urbaine des pays en développement. Ces scénarios ont été organisés notamment à travers la mise en œuvre de PI-hubs, de systèmes de transport à la demande, et du partage des actifs. Le chapitre 4 développe les contributions techniques et expérimentales du travail de recherche en établissant un modèle de simulation hybride dédié basé sur la modélisation à base d'agents et la simulation à événements discrets. Il comprend la définition d'indicateurs de performance spécifiques capables de mesurer les impacts potentiels des scénarios conçus au chapitre 3 par rapport au scénario de base. La contribution expérimentale est développée sur la base d'un cas industriel réel lié aux activités logistiques du commerce électronique dans la ville de Phnom Penh (Cambodge). Les résultats numériques montrent les avantages évidents de l'utilisation des PI-hubs et des systèmes de transport à la demande, qui permettent des économies très substantielles allant jusqu'à 55% pour la qualité de service, 61% pour les empreintes carbone et 75% pour les coûts logistiques. Cependant, l'étude présente certaines limites, qui sont également discutées. Globalement, le travail de recherche conclut que l'utilisation de certains concepts d'IP pourrait améliorer considérablement les performances des activités de logistique urbaine dans les pays en développement, sans investissement particulièrement important. L'étude propose plusieurs perspectives de recherche futures, notamment l'utilisation de l'IP dans différents contextes et le développement d'outils d'aide à la décision opérationnels pour la mise en œuvre de l'IP dans la logistique urbaine de ces paysThe research study aims to address the city logistics challenges faced by developing countries, notably in Southeast Asia. Chapter 1 provides a detailed understanding of the critical characteristics of developing countries, such as revenue, business, social, and land development challenges, and how these challenges lead to city logistics problems. These challenges include traffic congestion, unsafe roads, poor-quality infrastructures, expensive and unreliable vehicles, high population growth rate, and urbanization. Hence, they have difficulty managing their city logistics activities sustainably and supporting their economy. Chapter 2 provides an overview of the Physical Internet (PI) research works and how it can be considered in the context of developing countries. The research questions are formulated based on this extensive material, which are how the principles of PI can be implemented in the context of city logistics in developing countries, how the application of PI concepts can be assessed in terms of its impact on performance, and what are the benefits that can be expected from the implementation of PI on the case of city logistics in developing countries. To solve these questions, the research proposes a design science research methodology consisting of four main phases and nine steps. Chapter 3 developed a conceptual contribution by assessing the accessibility and stake levels of each PI concept and concluded that the priority ones for solving the problem statement should be information sharing and standardized systems, collaborative multifaceted activities, and open system stakeholder interconnections. A set of scenarios were designed to put PI into practice for better delivering goods in the context of city logistics in developing countries. These scenarios were organized through the implementation of PI-hubs, on-demand and as-a-service transportation systems, and sharing of assets. Chapter 4 developed the technical and experimental contributions of the research work by setting a dedicated hybrid simulation model based on agent-based modeling and discrete event simulation. It includes the definition of specific performance indicators able to measure the potential impacts of the scenarios design in Chapter 3 regarding the baseline scenario. The experimental contribution is developed based on a real industrial case related to e-commerce logistics activities in Phnom Penh city (Cambodia). The numerical results show the clear benefit of using PI-hubs and especially on-demand and as-a-service transportation systems, which allows very substantial savings up to 55% for lead times, 61% for carbon footprints, and 75% for logistics costs. However, the study has some limitations, which are also discussed. Overall, the study concludes that the use of certain PI concepts could drastically improve the performance of urban logistics activities in developing countries without any particularly large investment. The research proposes several future research perspectives, including the use of PI in different contexts and the development of a decision-making tools for PI implementation in urban logistics

This thesis challenges the popular idea of 1950s New York City as a liberal desegregated city characterized by racial tolerance by looking closely at the issues of juvenile delinquency and neighbourhood-based youth gangs. Using a wide variety of archival research—including but not limited to newspaper and magazine articles, oral histories, recorded audio, photographs, and databases—it argues that groups of working class teenagers organized themselves into ethnically-divided gangs in response to postwar demographic transitions that saw a large influx of black and Hispanic migrants to historically white areas. It views anti-social gang activity, especially “rumbles” or fights, as modes of conversation that racialized gang members engaged in with fellow teenagers and the public about their experiences and frustrations trying to access the city’s theoretically desegregated recreational amenities. Using two case studies drawn from highly-publicized incidents in the 1950s, this thesis demonstrates that some youth gang members vocally pushed back against municipal and media authorities’ colourblind go-to discourse of “hoodlumism” to explain the juvenile delinquency problem facing postwar New Yorkers— revealing a city riddled with interracial tension after all.History, Department of

We have chosen the title "Dancing Voices" because of our interest in working with the spoken word, both in past works and new works. The concert will be divided into two parts, one featuring each of our 15-minute pieces, created to satisfy the MFA degree requirement, and the other will feature reconstructions and restagings of older pieces (some of them revised or edited).v, 56 leaves

Is it possible to help families of political ex-prisoners talk about the past using photographic re-enactment, set within a framework of Post-Positive, Critical Realism? This thesis presents three case studies which adopts a feminist/community activist, artistic approach to enable family members of political ex-prisoners to talk ,about interrnalised trauma related to their relative's imprisonment in Northern Ireland. during t~e historic period called 'The Troubles', This was accomplished using a socially engaged, Participative Action Research (PAR) paradigm. The methodology is practice based; using the ' values of Feminism and PAR it gave the participants control of the research outputs via the short film, their lifeline books and an audio photographic exhibition. The research used several methods, 'in particular the Family Album via Spence, (1979, 1986, 1995, 2005, 2012) Martin, (2001) Kuhn (2002) and Morrissey (2005), these theorists question the myth of 'happiness' evident within the family album. I investigated re-enactment photography theories, which are underpinned by Deller's (2~01) 'The Battle of Orgreave' and Sepinuck's 'Theatre of Witness' (2013) both techniques challenge cultural forgetting. Weiser's (1999) theory of photo projective techniques ;enabled the participants to picture their internalised memories. The research situates the, participants within their personal, cultural and political framework via Critical Realism. Qualitative methods of data collection were used via in-depth personal interviews and narrative analysis, that I collected throughout the workshop processes. The data revealed that internalisation of trauma was passed on from one generation to the next resulting in a disconnection of the third generation who knew little of their parents and grandparents experiences. My analysis enabled me to produce an advanced re-enactment methodology to enable the women to talk about their internalised memories. I also designed a facilitator's guide which maps out a three stage methodological process. The study concluded that Participative Action Research which includes a combination of methods centred on photographic re-enactment can encourage an intergenerational exchange of memories which can facilitate familial and community discussions about the past.

On the 50th anniversary of the labour recruitment agreement between Germany andTurkey, Turkish migrants in Germany continue to occupy a central position as theobjects of the on-going public discussions on immigration and integration. Thisstudy explores, with a transnational perspective, how the discourses on migrantintegration are formulated in the transnational Turkish language media in Germany,as well as, if and how those discourses differ from, comply with or resist thedominant integrationist discourse in Germany. To reach this aim, discourse analysison empirical material consisting of 97 articles from the European editions ofnewspapers Zaman and Hürriyet, has been conducted within the theoreticalperspective informed by the ideas of Michel Foucault. The study concludes thatthere are conflicting and overlapping discourses on integration manifested in theTurkish language media in Germany, which are in varying degrees resisting to andin conformity with the dominant integrationist discourse in Germany. The resistanceand compliance occurs in a complex and transnational way, in the reflection of thepolitical and ideological fault lines in Turkey.

What are the pivotal factors underlying the development and viability of regional Indigenous organisations committed to preserving and promulgating the cultural knowledge of their people? This question is investigated in the experience of Roebourne-based Juluwarlu Group Aboriginal Corporation from 2002-08 as it grew from a small scale, subsistence-funded, cultural recording organisation, into an archiving, publishing, digital media, television broadcasting, media training, cultural consultancy, advocacy and Native Title management enterprise.
This study pays careful attention to post-World War II Pilbara history which featured the creation of the Roebourne Aboriginal ghetto and the mining boom that overwhelmed the region in the 1960s and 70s, and more recently was marked by Native Title, the conservative Howard Government, post-ATSIC administrative/ political climate, and the resurgence in iron ore and gas stocks. Also examined are the effects, both on cultural practice in Roebourne and Juluwarlu’s development, of the documentary Exile and The Kingdom, which was produced with the community by the author and Noelene Harrison between 1987 and 1993.1 These histories inform both the reasons for Juluwarlu’s emergence and the meaning of its achievements.
Key findings converge on the character and consequence of leadership and the generative efficacy of the Yindjibarndi cultural, social and ethical system; the advantage obtained via considered partnerships with collaborators; and the adaptive engagement of Indigenous tradition with management principles and communications and media technology – on Indigenous terms, rather than the labour-market-driven schemes that, for example, seek to match Indigenous disadvantage or development with labour shortages in the Pilbara resources industries.
This thesis diverges from other studies that have typically researched Indigenous disadvantage within the context of broader public policy/legislation and political economy, albeit these contexts inevitably inform it. Instead, primary attention is given to the experimental and generative capacity that Juluwarlu brought to negotiating advantage from public and private institutions, challenging their recalcitrance, and sometimes moving beyond them. Finally, Sovereign Voices records how Juluwarlu’s responsibility for country and culture, and insistence on respect and equitable acknowledgement for their custodianship, was charged by media and communications technologies, and how these in turn ramified its organisational wherewithal for the benefit of their community – both practically and a symbolically. Juluwarlu’s mediation and giving of voice, I contend, militated against the ‘silencing’ shroud of the corporate-state-media hegemony.

In the rural village Umoja one can witness a reaction to the unequal society; the women opposed the deep-rooted cultural habits and created their own dream space, a place designed through the eyes of a woman. A village ruled by women, built up by their needs. The Umoja women’s way of life is very controversial and a huge contrast to the rest of the country. Looking at Nairobi, and the informal settlements the situation is completely different, but the dream about an equal space is the same. In this thesis we are looking at how architecture can work with the social issues about equality, focusing on the public room in one of the larger informal settlements – Korogocho. Due to the density the only space that is public is the street. The streets become the only space for interaction, as well as the place for political, economic and social activities. Through observing, analysing and interacting it is clear that the streets are mostly claimed by men. In combination with high levels of unemployment, crimes, drugs and alcohol creates a very insecure public sphere, especially for women and children. These vulnerable group needs new context that is not limited to the private home. Through a series of spatial interventions, we are interested in how architecture can question this norm, by understanding the street as a public area and analysing how it is used and can be used in the future.

Composed for soprano, tenor, and baritone voices, woodwind, percussion, and string instruments, Three Voices is a polyglotic work that includes German, Chinese, and Spanish texts. The texts are chosen from Brecht Bertolt's Das Schiff, Po Chu I's Lang T'ao Sha, and Frederico Garcia Lorcá's Mar. Significant features of the piece are 1) application of Chinese operatic singing methods to vocal material in the sections that use Chinese text, 2) use of western instruments to emulate the sound of certain Chinese instruments, and 3) employment of Sprechstimme and dramatically inflected speech to create theatrical effects and highlight the sections that use German and Spanish texts.

Voice hearing (auditory hallucinations) is associated with multiple problems : disturbed behaviour, anxiety, depression, social stigma, and suicide ( Siris 1991 , Barnes et al. 1989, Caldwell & Gottesman 1990). Traditionally voices are seen as a symptom of schizophrenia , psychosis, and mental illness, even though recent estimates of prevalence are 2-4% of the population (Siris 1990, Tien et al. 1993). This view has been challenged by research that has shown that there are many different experiences of voices, positive and negative, and that they are not confined to particular diagnoses or clinical populations (Romme & Escher 1989, Bentall 1990). The aetiology of voice hearing is still unknown and to date a comprehensive cognitive model has yet to be elaborated. This study explores the role of metacognition in the maintenance of distress about voices and offers an alternative to the prevailing cognitive account of voices suggested by Chadwick & Birchwood (1994). Morrison, Haddock & Tarrier 's(1995) idea that voices arise because of particular metacognitive beliefs concerning intrusive thoughts is also explored. Using multiple regression analysis this study has shown that metacognitive factors can be used to make a fairly good prediction of levels of distress about voices (Rsq. = 0.64, F=9.64, p<0.001). Important elements of metacognition that were highlighted by the analysis were fears of madness as a result of hearing voices, degree of personal responsibility taken for thoughts in general, degree of responsibility for voices, perceived abnormality of hearing voices for others, desired positivity of thoughts in general, and perceived weak-mindedness. The presence of malevolent content and anxiety were also found to be important in giving a comprehensive account of distress associated with voices. Methodological limitations, theoretical contributions and implications for future research are discussed. The idea of a metacognitive therapy for voices is introduced.

Five professionals who have been working as journalist in their home countries come to Scandinavia after different kinds of terrible experiences and difficulties and there their status is refugee. They all attend to a course of radio making, radio is a new media for all of them and during the course they learn more about the media and have all by the end of the course made a radio documentary about themselves. Their documentaries were short stories about the events of their lives. More and more immigrants and refugees are coming to Scandinavia and have to build a new life in a new society. This paper explores life stories of people when integrating and seeks answers to questions why it is important to share your life story with other and could sharing your story help with integration. The interest is also in radio as a media and as a media for storytelling, what are its strengths and weaknesses and what does future hold for radio in rapidly changing media environment. The research combines two qualitative methods which are supposed to complement each other: qualitative interviews and narrative analysis for analysing radio documentaries.

Abstract : This research addresses the issues of intersectionality and agency in Maya Angelou?s autobiographical work I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings. The specific objective of this investigation is to analyze the metaphor of the ?caged bird?. In order to conduct such analysis, this research draws on the concept of ?intersectionality? coined by Kimberlé Crenshaw to investigate how different stratifying factors?such as race, gender and class ? intersect in creating the experience of black women. In addition, this work focuses on Judith Butler?s concept of ?agency? in order to investigate whether signs of resistance can be perceived in the narrative regardless of the social structures the characters are part of. This research indicates that, although the characters in Caged Bird are constrained by different modes of oppression, they find within these social structures spaces for exercising agency. The protagonist and the different characters the narrator describes are caged by race, poverty, gender, just to mention a few. Nevertheless, in the same way that ?caged birds? sing, they are also able to express some form of creative resistance.
Esta pesquisa aborda as questões de interseccionalidade e agência na narrativa autobiográfica da escritora Afro-Americana Maya Angelou, intitulado Eu Sei Porque o Pássaro Canta na Gaiola. O objetivo específico dessa investigação é analisar a metáfora do ?pássaro engaiolado?. Para a realização de tal análise, esta pesquisa baseia-se no conceito de ?interseccionalidade?, cunhado pela primeira vez por Kimberlé Crenshaw com o intuito de investigar como diferentes fatores ? como, por exemplo, raça, gênero e classe ? intersectam na criação da mulher negra. Além disso, o trabalho utiliza-se do conceito de ?agência?, tal como entendido por Judith Butler, a fim de investigar se sinais de resistência podem ser encontrados no romance independentemente das estruturas sociais em que os personagens estão inseridos. Esta pesquisa indica que, embora as personagens sejam restringidas por diferentes formas de opressão, elas encontram dentro das estruturas sociais espaço para exercer sua agência. A protagonista, bem como as diferentes personagens descritas por ela, são engaioladas por sua raça, gênero e class, etc. No entanto, assim como o ?pássaro engaiolado? canta, elas também são capazes de expressar algumas formas de resistência criativa.

This essay consider several themes related to public gatherings that require more attention by archaeologists. These are (1) the relations between elites and non-elites in public events, (2) what public gatherings indicate about the societies sponsoring them, (3) the social pluralism of public encounters and their wider context and meaning, and (4) some material correlates of public gatherings. Also considered briefly are some theoretical and methodological issues in Andean ethnography and ethnohistory that have relevance to public gatherings and their analogical value in archaeology. Examples from Peru and Chile are employed to demonstrate several points.El presente ensayo considera diversos temas relacionados con las reuniones públicas, las que requieren más atención por parte de los arqueólogos.

The poems in this thesis are an exploration of how two worlds can exist at once. The first world is the physical world as we perceive it through our senses and experience it through living. It is a cyclical world that begins with childhood, and moves toward adulthood, parenthood and death. In this world we go about the act of living. Yet it is in the second world, a more metaphysical one, that we are most alive. We often gain our knowledge of this world through observing and experiencing the natural world. It is a place in which we discover our true selves. This world exists like the mythical ethers; its boundaries are unmarked and the journey takes us into places of light and dark, of sound and silence. It is the coexistence of these two worlds that I attempt to explore in my writing. To access this metaphysical world requires a certain sense of surrender. This can be difficult since it seems to be our species' natural tendency to try to tame or control our environment. Therefore, we must not assume the attitude of a conqueror of nature. We must assume instead the role as a student of nature. That means being truly attentive, finding stillness and quiet, and being willing to listen to the world around us. Secrets can be told in bird song or in the shadows of oaks. My love for nature and writing began at an early age. As a teen I fell in love with poetry. I discovered the poetry of the Victorians, Pre-Raphaelites and Romantics in old anthologies stored away in my grandparent's attic. In these dusty bound volumes with their frayed covers, I discovered the lyrical language of Browning, Tennyson, and Keats. Delving into them instilled in me the appreciation for the beauty of words playing upon each other. In later years, teachers and mentors, like Peggy and Frank Steele, introduced me to the poetry of William Stafford, Ted Kooser, and William Carlos Williams. I was drawn to the straightforward economical use of language by Stafford. His style explored the inner and outer world in language accessible to the average reader. Kooser also used accessible language to describe the human condition. His portraits and narratives instilled validity to my own sense of narrative found in many of my poems. Finally, my poet husband, Dorsey Grice, introduced me to the poetry of Mary Oliver. Her incredible attunement to and observations of nature left me humbled. Somewhere between those early discoveries of the traditional poetic canon and my studies of the modern/contemporary poets I have found my own voice emerge. The blending of the periods has created in me the tendency to write with an economy of language, combined with what I hope are lyrical, melodic lines that are imbued with a subtle sense of rhythm. In writing this creative thesis I have divided the poems into two sections. In general they explore how we relate within physical, social and spiritual contexts. The first section is entitled "A Woman You Might Know" and deals more with the human experience of raising children, finding and losing love, grieving for the ill and dying, and searching for wholeness. The second section is called "The Sound of Trees" and deals with observations within the natural world. It includes poems dealing with the changing of the seasons, farm life, observing wildlife, and the spiritual world. Although each is divided according to a general topic, they both hopefully convey the presence of a dual world in which we live every day and are occasionally allowed a glimpse into. It's a place where the voices of our ancestors gather round us to share their stories and teach us something of value about ourselves.

This research and documentary film attempts to articulate the story of the worker at Bethlehem Steel formally located in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. In part, this is an examination of the labor unions at Bethlehem Steel and though they remain always in the background the film delves more deeply into the evolution of the worker at the plant from the early strikes for labor recognition to the closing of the plant. There are three chapters in the film; the 1941 Bethlehem Steel strike, the unions after their recognition, and the closing of the Bethlehem plant. The workers stories and analysis form the central component of the film and the methodology for selecting what would be included. Workers provide most of the analysis whereas the narration and multi-media selected serve to facilitate their story. What the documentary finds is a wealth of information on Bethlehem Steel as told by their workers coupled with the human emotion that accompanies their struggle. This documentary film explores workers at Bethlehem Steel, their initiation into labor unions, their evolution through the decades, and finally their lives through the closing.

Objectives: The cognitive model offers a useful framework to understand the emotional and behavioural consequences of voice-hearing experience. Substance use can be viewed as a way of coping with these emotional and behavioural consequences. This research explores how substance use as a coping strategy may affect voice-hearers‟ beliefs about their relationships with the voices, how they cope with the voices and compliance with command hallucinations. Design: This research used a qualitative design to analyse the experiences of participants that have used substances as a way of coping with hearing voices giving commands. Participants were recruited from early intervention services and community mental health services within a local NHS Trust. Methods: Semi-structured interviews were held with nine participants and analysed using a thematic analysis to identify themes amongst the accounts of their experiences. Participants also completed a Beliefs About Voices Questionnaire (BAVQ-R) as a triangulation measure of the appraisals of the voices. Results: Six themes in total were identified during the analysis and a theme of control was interpreted as central to the research question. These themes were: Control; emotional moderation; relationships; self-concept; understanding of psychosis and function of the substance use. Many participants viewed themselves as passively using substances which took control of themselves and their voices. Participants also used substances to disengage from the emotional effect of hearing voices Conclusions: The research suggests that people who hear voices may use substances to lessen the control of the voice. For some this may mean remaining passive and attributing substances (including anti-psychotic medication) as having control over the voice. This has implications for how services can successfully engage individuals in treatment. The effect of substance use on compliance with commands remains unclear.

Background Voice hearers’ relationships with their voices can mirror their wider social relating (e.g. Paulik, 2012). Research has found a relationship between social isolation and beliefs about voices being benevolent (e.g. Favrod et al., 2004). Attachment style impacts on aspects on the voice hearing experience (e.g. Berry et al., 2012) but no previous study has used a measure of attachment to investigate voice hearers’ relationship with their voices. Aims To investigate whether voice hearers develop attachment bonds with their voices, and whether this relates to general attachment style, social isolation and dependence on the voice. Method 83 voice hearers were recruited online. Measures were: The Experiences in Close Relationships Revised (ECR-R), Dependence Scale of Voice and You (VAY), Reciprocal Attachment Questionnaire (RAQ), the Frequency and Distress items from the Hamilton Programme for Schizophrenia Voices Questionnaire (HPSVQ), UCLA Loneliness Scale, and Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9). Narrative information was also collected. Analysis A cross-sectional correlational design was used with additional content analysis of the narrative data. Doctoral Thesis: Exploring voice hearers’ relationships Teresa Nevard with their voices: Can voices serve an adaptive function? ii Results Initial evidence was found of attachment bonds to voices in a proportion of voice hearers. Voice hearers with high attachment anxiety reported greater fear of losing their voice. Correlations between attachment to voice and loneliness lost significance after post hoc adjustment and controlling for low mood. As this is the first study using a measure of attachment for relationships with voices it is important to interpret the results with caution. Conclusion The research highlights the importance of considering individuals relationships with their voices. It is hoped that the results of this research will lead to further investigation of attachment bonds with voices and the elucidation of how general attachment style and social isolation impacts on this. Further investigation of this could lead to clinical benefits for voice hearers who are distressed by their voices.

Background Beliefs about voices, their origin, intent and powerfulness can all impact on the voice hearer, their level of distress and their need for help. Interpersonal difficulties can exacerbate distress and be reflected in the person’s relationship with their voices. Emotion regulation strategies, which may be functional or dysfunctional help the person manage their reaction. This study aims to investigate beliefs about voices, symptoms and interpersonal issues as well as how well these areas predict emotion regulation strategies Methods Two groups of participants (18 with low and 16 with high omnipotence scores) were recruited through their mental health workers. The participants completed six self-report measures that assessed beliefs, emotion regulation strategies, interpersonal difficulties, dimensions of voice hearing and symptoms. Results Omnipotence scores differentiated some of the interpersonal issues and only one symptom subscale (phobic anxiety); those who scored high on the omnipotence subscale experienced more difficulties. For the emotion regulation subscales, lower omnipotence scorers differed significantly from the higher omnipotence scorers, using more external functional and dysfunctional strategies. Regression analysis showed that ‘distress’ incorporating the PSYRATS emotion subscale, the BSI grand total and the IIP-32 total predicted the use of dysfunctional emotion regulation strategies, but omnipotence beliefs did not add much to this. Conclusions Overall voice hearers experience a range of beliefs about their voices. Those with higher omnipotence beliefs find it difficult to socialise, be involved with other people, and are too dependent and caring with reference to other people. Omnipotent beliefs did not, in general, differentiate symptoms or emotion regulation strategies. This would suggest that beliefs may not be what determines distress and subsequent help seeking. Distress and interpersonal issues predict the use of emotion regulation strategies with little being added to the prediction by omnipotent beliefs; this suggests that there may be an alternative to the single symptom approach. Further research is required to assess the contribution made by emotion regulation to the development, maintenance and course of voice hearing. Assessment and interventions with reference to emotion regulation also require investigation.

This dissertation presents a framework for describing and understanding the experience of voices in acousmatic electroacoustic music and related genres. The framework is developed with a phenomenological basis, where the author’s own listening experience has been the main object of study. One component of the framework has been to group aspects that potentially can be attended to into experiential domains based on some common feature, relationship or function. Four vocal experiential domains related to the voice are presented along with three domains not directly related to the voice. For each of these domains, a set of concepts are introduced allowing for qualification and description of features of the experience. The second component of the framework, the maximal-minimal model, is partly described through these domains. This model presents maximal and minimal voice as loosely defined poles constituting end points on a continuum on which experienced voices can be localized. Here, maximal voice, which parallels the informative and clearly articulated speaking voice dominant in the radio medium, is described as the converging fulfillment of seven premises. These premises are seen as partly interconnected conditions related to particular aspects or features of the experience of voice. At the other end of the continuum, minimal voice is defined as a boundary zone between voice and non-voice, a zone which is related to the negative fulfilment of the seven premises. A number of factors are presented that potentially can affect an evaluation of experiences according to the premises, along with musical excerpts that exemplifies different evaluation categories along the continuum. Finally, the two frameworks are applied in an evaluation and description of the author’s experience of Paul Lansky’s Six Fantasies on a Poem by Thomas Campion .
